What is kerb rash / scuff repair?
Scrapes on the edge of alloy wheels repaired and colour-matched so they look like new.
Kerb rash is the grinding damage from parking too close to a kerb. The technician sands out the damage, fills deeper gouges, and refinishes the affected area to match the original colour and finish. Many repairs can be done at your home or work.
Signs you need it
- Scrapes or gouges on the rim edge
- Corrosion starting where paint is damaged
- Wheels look tired when selling the car
How it works
- Clean and mask the wheel
- Sand out the damaged area
- Fill deeper marks
- Prime and colour-match
- Apply clear coat
- Cure and polish
You can choose a workshop visit or have a professional come to your home, work or depot.
How much does it cost?
The exact price depends on your vehicle and the job. On MYLES, each professional shows a fixed price, a starting price, a range, or sends a quote — so you can compare like for like before you book.
- Number of wheels
- Finish type (painted, diamond-cut, chrome)
- Depth of damage
Tips
- Diamond-cut wheels need a lathe and are usually a workshop job
- Fixing early stops corrosion spreading under the paint
Why it matters
Mostly cosmetic, but it protects the wheel from corrosion and helps resale.
